Enterprise IT managers generally consider Facebook a huge time waster. They might be right. Most of the applications created for Facebook so far are of the playful sort, with no direct business application.Still, there's more than a smattering of tools that can have business application, beyond the ability to create business-focused social groups.
There are more than a thousand apps self-described as business tools, and many of the others might be used in a business way.
Sure, it's a non-guided, messy process. But that's pretty much the way innovation is going to happen in any case.
It's just a process of discovery.
Lots of business-focused people are trying to figure out how to apply social networking in an enterprise context, so there is a clear sense that this is not all about "fun and games," even if that's where most of the apps are.
